![]() 1) Use a Keyboard Shortcut for “Force Quit Applications” Window in Mac OS X. Starting with one of the best and easiest is the system wide Force Quit function: Hit Command+Option+Escape from anywhere to bring up the simple “Force Quit Applications” window, then click on the app name to select, followed by clicking the “Force Quit” button, this will end the app immediately. If you use Windows Task Manager before for ending tasks and stopping errant processes, you already know what is the main function of Activity Monitor. This app is Mac equivalent of Microsoft Task Manager. So, you can easily see which processes are using your computer and stop them to make. Hi I installed the final windows 8 from dreamspark. Now i always started the task manager automatically at the start up. I tried to do the same with windows 8 by adding a taskmgr.exe shortcut (located at c: windows system32) at the startup folder (c: users 'username' appdata roaming microsoft windows start menu programs startup). Now the task manager can be seen in the startup tab in the taskmanager, but when i restart my computer, the task manager doesn't start. Does anybody here know the solution to this problem? Yep, or can possibly use the local group policy editor to create a logon script, it should auto-create the folders for you when you apply your logon script. Search for 'gpedit.msc' EDIT: Not sure which edition of Windows 8 you are on, if you cannot find gpedit.msc (even by searching) then it might not be there and you'll have to create the folders manually. It's usually only available in the non-home versions, not sure what dreamspark is pushing on students. EDIT EDIT: If using a short-cut don't work, use a batch file that opens TaskMgr, maybe that is the real problem. Call it from an actual '.cmd' batch file instead of via a shortcut.

Ok so we drop the 'Local group policy editor' i assume.;) Alright i created a.cmd batch file and put it in the 'C: Users lefreeman AppData Roaming Microsoft Windows Start Menu Programs Startup' folder. Now it's great, the task manager starts. Only two problems are left: 1) The cmd window stays open 2) the task manager doesn't start minimized in the tray. What commands do i have to add in the.cmd file so these two problems are removed? I'm sorry i haven't much experience with these kind of problems. It does not seem to respect the option to 'Minimize on Use' so we might need to go into powershell after all. But I doubt you'll be able to drop it into your start menu folder, back to group policy if you need.ps1. From batch try this, it will close the batch window, but not handle minimizing, or the second snip is powershell and it will minimize your taskmgr (along with everything else) start C: Windows System32 taskmgr.exeexit start C: Windows System32 taskmgr.exe[void] [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName('Microsoft.VisualBasic')$shell = New-Object -ComObject “Shell.Application”$shell.MinimizeAll() Don't forget to mark your posts as answered so they drop off the unanswered post filter.
